Using Virtualmin template variables

[stu177]

I'm trying to use the Virtualmin template variables from here in the section labelled "Adding Nginx config directives".

It doesn't seem to parse them and causes the nginx site config to be broken on a new site creation.

The code I'm trying is:

location ^~ /.well-known/acme-challenge/ {
    root /home/${USER}/public_html/;
}

Is it possible to use the Virtualmin template variables here or is there any other way of using them in the nginx site config that is generated?

Thanks

What's the exact error message you're getting? Is it that ${USER} isn't substituted when the domain is created?
